BEIJING - China's courier sector handled 13.59 billion parcels in February, a surge of 58.8 percent year-on-year, the State Post Bureau said on Friday.
The sector's total revenue expanded 30.4 percent year-on-year to 99.1 billion yuan ($13.81 billion) last month, according to the bureau.
For the postal industry, the total delivery volume climbed 50.9 percent year-on-year to 14.98 billion packages, and its revenue edged up 24.9 percent to 122.62 billion yuan.
"Driven by the low-base effect from last year's Spring Festival, the postal industry's key indicators saw high year-on-year growth in February this year," the bureau said.
In the first two months of 2025, China's courier sector handled 28.48 billion parcels, up 22.4 percent year-on-year. The sector generated revenues of 221.04 billion yuan during this period, marking an increase of 11.2 percent year-on-year.
